No. Just... No.

This... It has the development and the delivery of a wet cake. It almost made me sick, that up to that point where Adler confessed his "love", It was at least entertaining, but after that, I pretty much petered out of tolerance and suspence of disbelief. If Fremy wasn't the harass gun shooter she was built up to be, and not ending up a blushing dumbass, I'd be fine... But this... Fuck this show.

And this is coming from someone who barely even cares about the rest of the cast, because I couldn't give 2 shits about the fatass cowgirl, or steroid Sasuke. I'm just simply saying my piece, because, this downright murdered my interest in anime. DxD and that shitty Testament show stabbed it, this downright killed it.

Well, Adlet x Fremy was good enough to get a lot of viewers to believe it and start shipping it.
Want to try explaining why you find their romance not believable? People who complain about it usually don't provide believable explanations.

P.S. Spoiler, around vol.5, I think:

What kind of anime do you like? Why worry about fanservice shows like DxD and Testament?

Because the people who watch those shows act like fucking manchildren. This was passable until that fucking confession... It can suck my fucking nuts...

Generalizing and insulting doesn't make you sound any more mature than those "manchildren". It's pretty much your own fault for not watching anime that doesn't appeal to you. I know not everyone has the time to sift through the dozen or so anime every season so i suggest maybe looking through MAL's Top Anime list to get a better idea of what you might like.

This isn't an answer, you know. At least not the answer to the quoted part.

For that matter, it is not an answer to the part not quoted.

Wait, so umm. You started to dislike the show, the moment romance hit?
Would you have preferred it like they do it in all the other anime, where the MC lacks backbone to show his feelings (or the author interrupts with humor or other events) and instead circle around a harem of girls?

Or do you generally dislike romance in stories?

You're not really clear on what you dislike.

That confession is perfectly fine in the story. Just like several other moments, it may feel weird due to the fact that you have only the beginning of the story adapted in anime. You don't know Adlet's past, you don't know Fremy's past.
Just like Mora's attitude may seem out of place from time to time because you don't know Mora. Just like Goldof may seem to be just a dumb character with a bodyguard crush because you don't know what place Nashetania has in his life in the past.
The appearance of Rolonia may seem weird too, as well as her attitude toward adlet, because yo udon't know Rolonia's past. Nashetania's goal may seem crazy, or stupid, but it isn't at all. And so on.

As someone who have the infos you don't, I can tell you this, everything make PERFECT SENSE.

But yes, I understand that as an anime watcher that part and a few other may have seemed out of place and was annoying.
That story is actually far too smart for an anime, and especially not proper for a partial anime adaptation, because the link between events and foreshadowing between volumes are far too numerous. If yo ustop after adapting the first volume, you have the foreshadowing everywhere of contents from volume 2 to 6, without having the foreshadowed content and without being able to guess it, because well, it's too smart. In reverse, this is a downfall of the anime. IF the numerous foreshadowing and others scenes weren't that smart, peoples would be able to guess what isn't said in the anime, and rather than finding that dumb, they could theorize. But they can't do that here, so in reverse, this just look falsely dumb.

I tough it was great, there is barely any shonen with romance for the main character these days, and it was well made so far, i don't know what you hate in it, i mean if you don't like romance that fine, but people who like that can tell you that it was great

I dont know if its a spoiler or not but just to be safe because it is based on what I've read across all 5 volumes.

Nevermind , I posted it as I finished the 4th and started the 5th...........I just read the summed up version of vol 6. It's just a a clusterfuck for my feelings........if this will ever get 2nd season it will break the chains of cinism I have in me when I'll watch it.

I really enjoyed the romance, Fremy is by far the most interesting female cast member. Just hope that cow dissapears. Ugh. (hate clingy cows)

The "cow" isn't a love rival for Fremy, she's Adlet's good friend, not a love interest. This isn't some romcom, you won't see anything like this ever happening.

The only thing I have against the pairing was how drastic the change was for Fremy, who went from cold to blushing lol. However, I just take it more as Fremy not being a bad person/human/demon at all in the first place, just a bit spiteful.

Fremy never had a cold personality to begin with. She was wounded emotionally lately and therefore closed herself to others, refusing to trust, but her personality isn't cold. So no problem indeed.
